Recently, a Nubia smartphone with model number NX651J was spotted on 3C certification website which could be the upcoming Nubia Play 5G smartphone. The listing shows that the phone could have 30W fast charging support and is compatible with Quick Charge, PD, PPS and other charging protocols.

This will also mark the first device getting launch after the company unveiled its new logo, which has ditched the red dot design and has adopted a typography-based modern and bright red-colored branding.

Interestingly, the company had also launched a smartphone series named Nubia M2 Play back in 2017. So, this could a part of that lineup and the company may have decided to ditch the ‘M2’ branding. Or it could be a totally new smartphone lineup from the company and based on the naming, there’s a possibility that it’s a budget gaming device.
